Resolved nice and quick tho. Played RJ (or was it a code update that went a little pear shaped that u did in the first place! )

That was from a system shutdown. Dealing with a bit of a tough situation right now and putting in a fix now.

MAss Spam? Company I work for is presently getting a very high volume of spam, and sent them a great reply..let me dig it out.

Allow me to make myself ABSOLUTELY CLEAR

You have SPAMMED me

I am NOT happy about this

We have taken a VERY strong stance against SPAMMERS

If we receive any more unsolicited mail from you, you agree by sending any unsolicited e-mail to any name @teessidemedia.com & .co.uk, @teesvalleybusiness.com & co.uk, @best-fishing.com or @bestfishingtackle.co.uk & [email protected] to receive from us 100,000 remove requests by e-mail for every unsolicited e-mail we receive from you or the mailing/spamming companies that you are using to SPAM us.

We have written appropriate software that runs on our internet server to deal with this problem.

REMEMBER - ANY UNSOLICITED MAIL FROM YOU OR YOUR COMPANY IS TO AGREE TO RECEIVING 100,000 REMOVE REQUEST E-MAILS IN RETURN

DO NOT REPLY TO THIS E-MAIL - WE DON'T WANT YOUR SPAM.

YOU HAVE BEEN FOREWARNED.

Errr ... that is just MY "term" for lotsa incoming e-mail's!
I don't know whether we were mass "spammed" or not, but I don't want anyone to push the panic button. Incoming Mail on any server at any given time is a relatively normal occurrence, as I understand it.
RJ is addressing it, and we should be good to go ... I'm sorry for any potential confusion I may have caused with my funky terminology here.
